I've already given these hints - look elsewhere.  I was able to match  
things on my system here, and see no reason why the same wouldn't be  
true for others.  Hit me up, pre-beer, and I'm willing to ssh in and  
take a peek, but that's all I have left to offer.  I've divulged the  
tools (in great detail (the find command is quite a piece, IMHO)).
